I’m on the tightrope
You’ve got your reasons
When did it get so hard to breathe?
Hide in the spotlight, I’m feelin’ so tired
Your hands are burnt from holdin’ me
And maybe you and I will fall in time
Eventually
Maybe we’ll both die trying, but I can’t bring
Myself to leave
‘Cause I’ve looked
And I ain’t seen nothin’ like you
The way you light up every room tonight
So easily
And I have moved mountains, babe
Just to stumble into your good grace and I
I still can’t compete
You’re on the tightrope
I’ve got my reasons
How did we get so tangled?
You turn, I stay straight
I bend as you break
We’re so messed up but I know
That you and I will fall in time, eventually
Or maybe we’ll both die trying
‘Cause I ain’t seen nothin’ like you
The way you light up every room tonight
So easily
And I have moved mountains, babe
Just to stumble into your good grace and I
I still can’t compete
Oh, oh, hmm
Oh, oh, oh, hmm
Oh you and I will fall in time eventually
Or maybe we’ll both die trying
‘Cause I ain’t seen nothin’ like you
The way you light up every room tonight
So easily
And I have moved mountains, babe
Just to stumble into your good grace and I
I still can’t compete
